  1. Dear Anne and Family
    Sending condolences to you and your family we will miss him dearly

  2. Dear Anne and family, I got to know Robin quite well during the last year when he would take the time to come and visit my father during his battle with cancer. At the end of my dad’s life, just day’s before Robin’s passing, it was often hard for people to see my dad so sick. Some folks just couldn’t bring themselves to visit. But Robin would come and sit with my dad and tell old stories about growing up as neighbours, or their ironworking days, and he would tell these stories even when my father was too tired to answer back. The last time my dad laughed, I mean really laughed, was when Robin told him a story. It would turn out to be only a few days before they both passed away. I tell this story because of the great respect I have for Robin for being such a compassionate life-long friend, and a giving soul. Your family is in our prayers.
